Antonio Vivaldi was mentored by his father

Antonio was taught everything he knew about music by his musician father. Antonio has always been interested in music, according to Giovanni. Through his father, Vivaldi was introduced to and trained by some of the most talented composers and musicians in Venice at the time.


His father, Giovanni Battista, was a barber before becoming a professional violinist, and one of the founders of the Sovvegno Dei Musicisti Di Santa Cecilia, an association of musicians. He taught Antonio how to play the violin and then took him on a tour in Venice and played the violin with his young son. Vivaldi was introduced to and taught by some of the best musicians and composers in Venice at the time through his father and the tours. While his violin technique improved, he was unable to learn wind instruments due to persistent shortness of breath. The father of Vivaldi may be a composer. Giovanni Battista Rossi wrote the opera La Fedeltà suckynata in 1689, under which Vivaldi's father joined Sovvegno di Santa Cecilia.


Therefore, Antonio Vivaldi is mentored by his father. He was probably educated as a child by evaluating the extensive musical knowledge he acquired at the age of 24 when he started working at Ospedale Della Pietà.
